An incorrigible Cognitive Dissident

BREXITEERS TAKE NOTE: the man now leading Brussels’ EU negotiating team is a 24-carat crook.

Novel-writing duties (and the garden) keeping me somewhat behind the music for the time being, I have only this afternoon realised that the inestimably ghastly Guy Verhofstadt is officially the lead member of the EU’s Brexit negotiating team. I would very much like to know why nobody in Downing Street or the Palace of Westminster has objected to the inclusion of this carpet-bagging little shit in what is supposed to be a serious, private process….as opposed to a series of stalls on Oxford Street diddling innocent passers-by with 3-card tricks.

I’ve been on the case of this Belgian chancer for over three years now, and every last act of his I’ve delved into has revealed a lying hypocrite busy enriching himself at the expense of the innocent.

In terms of internal Belgian politics, Verhofstadt stands alongside Herman Van Rompuy as a grubbily incompetent architect of Belgium’s descent into its current parlous condition….that of being on the verge of ‘Failed State’.

As an MEP, he has consistently stood on the side of those illegally harrassing Greece, crafting anti-worker global trade agreements, opposing all Member States standing against federalism in a full-frontal attack on Sovereign and citizen Rights. He is also, on every last issue, a craven lapdog on the short leash of anti-Russian NATO propaganda.

Transparency International’s Integrity Watch project has shown consistently that no other MEP has more commercial interests and conflicts outside the allegedly fulltime job of being a legislator than Verhofstadt. But as The Slog has explained in detail elsewhere, Grisly Guy the Gropey Verhofstadt Vampire isn’t that diligent when it comes the interest declaration thing.

Now, it is possible to argue that he is nothing more than Jean-Claude Drunker’s counterweight to the equally depraved and corrupt neocon Singaporista Boris Johnson in the other side of this somewhat lopsided roulette table. My problem as an Englishman looking for a more adventurous and mutually ethical future for Britain is that these two lardarses will probably get on like a house on fire.

And therein lies the nub – some would say the rub – for people like me. Because the May administration per se could be summed up as half-hearted Leavers crafting a half-baked Brexit – the main outcome of which will be more and more half-starved citizens and hard-hearted robber barons across an increasingly globalised world.

That has nothing to do with any of the reasons I voted to quit the EU. But then, I long ago gave up any expectation of my democratically expressed will triumphing in the end.

This is what Britain should have done immediately Verhofstadt was nominated: refuse to deal with any team even including (let alone led by) this disgusting individual.

Do not disagree with my left leaning opinions because I will delete you as I have no other answer. This is my only powerbase. Everyone in real life tells me to f*ck off you old ignorant c*nt.
But hey, catch me on twitter where you will see I knows everything about everything. Don’t be rude or you will end up in quarantine with my poodles.

The rub for them and in the end the UK will be forced into the same position as Greece. Watch and learn and why I laugh as my relative who lives in London reckoned they could change the EU by being able to add democracy to it. If there is no democracy in a system IT CANNOT BE ADDED LATER it does not happen that way as absolute power blocks it and just like the UK parliament is treating its population.

Nope, the EU was crafted as a “future police state and tyranny” and BREXIT cannot be allowed to interfere with that. The UK population were all born slaves, will live like slaves and die like slaves so get used to it.

This blog is a contrived twittering nonsense put forward to educate the educated in Great Britain with its head up its arse wearing tight jeans and sipping wine and based on my own vast experiences running chocolate biscuit adverts in Croydon during the 1970’s with one swivel eye glued to the television for fake experience to feed the imagination.

Do we have a license?
Do we have a license to gob off over the public internet like a mouthpiece with agenda. Answer NO.
Regulation is coming. Too many proles spouting nonsense on the airwaves which pollutes and infects everyones brains.

They are clamouring for a knighthood for the MP that performed CPR at Westminster recently. I wonder how the 5 paramedics who were also at the scene, whose pay and conditions have worsened under the present govt. feel about that?

TM’s stance on Brexit softens by the hour, soon, it will jelly, then liquid which will gently flow down the nearest drain.
The naïvety of these groups like ‘Westmonster’, ‘Leave.EU’ et.al. that are all over FB is astounding, they still believe that the UK will exit the EU.
Deluded fools all of them. The British Govt. have once again successfully skirted their way round the will of the British people.
The whole system is slanted so they get what they want, and we get what they want too.

I find myself thinking that the more dreadful the EU positions on Brexit (like huge exit fees up front) and the more despicable the EU negotiating team, the easier it will be for the UK to tell the EU to stuff it, or the greater the pressure on a half-hearted Brexiteer government in London to take a hard line in negotiations.

The preconditions for negotiation presented by the EU team seem to be aimed at preventing any progress in negotiations, and hence stalling Brexit for as long as possible. As pundits point to increasing signs of EU/Euro collapse, the panic in the Brussels bureaucracy increases, as they see their Brave New World threatening to crumble.

It’s a hostage situation, the blatantly petulant and resentful language in play surely makes that perfectly obvious to anyone capable of turning off the virtue signalling equipment which has been installed – at incalculable expense – in the public narrative.

Don’t forget the need for Belgian politicos, failed or otherwise, to be active on the world stage. Without the EU, Belgium would not continue as a unitary state. See the cracks over the Walloon parliament obstructing the trade treaty with Canada.

It is indeed painful and frustrating being on the wrong side of a vote, election or referendum. It has affected most of us at some point in our lives. For instance, the vote on the Maastricht Treaty (that Treaty Brits were not allowed a vote on but which was the one that actually granted you your EU “citizenship” – as if the EU had suddenly overnight become a country. A majority of the French in the metropolitan area of France in1992 voted against that Treaty but their vote was narrowly outweighed by France’s little dependencies like Guadeloupe, that heavily depend on EU subsidies – Score 50.8% For 49.2% Against.
Denmark also voted Against. By 50.7%
Then there were the poor Irish who were made to vote twice to get the “right” result on the Lisbon Treaty because their first vote was unacceptable to the oh-so-democratic EU.
How about the poor Greenlanders who voted against joining the EU by 53%. Or the Norwegians, who also voted not to join by 52.2%. Imagine how unfair and how gutted you’d feel.
Abiding lesson for you – LIFE IS UNFAIR. Try to come to terms with not being in control of it, or move to an EU country.

@ italian pants –
Misnomer – “Pro-European Brits”. God knows how many times this has been corrected in the Press – you must be hard of hearing – Virtually all Brits are pro-European – what 17+ million of them are not is pro- EU. See the difference?

I am writing to thank you for speaking up for the 48% of people who voted ‘Remain’ in the UK’s referendum on our European Union membership. Since 23rd June, our voices have been ignored by a government that is just not listening.

We were asked whether we wanted to remain EU citizens. Over 16 million of us said that we did. But we are all set to be stripped of that status nonetheless.

It is this impending loss of our EU citizenship that many of us feel so deeply. We will lose, at a stroke, the right to travel, live, study, work, retire, and set up a business with the minimum of bureaucratic fuss and bother in any of 27 other EU member states. But it is more than that. Many of us feel European – right down into our bones. We will feel this loss very strongly indeed.

It is fantastic therefore that you have now placed on the negotiating table the idea of offering pro-European Brits continuing associate EU citizenship. In recent days, even those who want to leave have conceded that this should be something they accept – as it would not stop Brexit and it would be entirely voluntary, meaning those who do not wish to take part do not have to do so. Reportedly, Number 10 is also potentially open to it.

I say thanks also to your Liberal colleague, Charles Goerens, whose amendment was instrumental in getting this onto the agenda in Brussels.

I do hope that this is an idea that can make progress, and thank you for your efforts to ensure that the voices of over 16 million pro-Europeans are heard in these negotiations.

As an MEP, he has consistently stood on the side of those illegally harrassing Greece, crafting anti-worker global trade agreements, opposing all Member States standing against federalism in a full-frontal attack on Sovereign and citizen Rights. He is also, on every last issue, a craven lapdog on the short leash of anti-Russian NATO propaganda.

In other words, he’s America’s man in America’s institution.

I wonder if he has any fingers in any pies on Wall Street? The kind of pie that bought Greek bonds on the cheap after Basel 1, 2 or 3… and profited massively when the EU/IMF/World Bank/name-your-US-henchman negotiated a 40% haircut. Not bad when you bought that crock for 3% of its face value.
